    Depending on your route Gav, I would imagine we will likely cross paths at some point.
    Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong

    Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....

    We could meet you at Popham services, they're the first ones on the A303, it's where we met Sharkey R this year.

    I'm down with that....stick me on the list then I can put faces to names!!

    Looking through the threads it seems like some of you were bummed with the long grass?? Surely (stop calling me 'Surely') a mower or two in the back of the V70's wouldn't be a bad idea...obviously that's what they're for

    According to my work rota I am off work on the 12th May unless something truely horrific happens I should be able to come along. I'm quite looking forward to it too, it'll be a sea of Volvos and Saabs, but we can only hope the Volvos outnumber the Saabs!

    Regards

    New parts for Saabs can't be too readily available now and there won't be many new ones too lol.
